Norbury Manor Primary School

NMP Dental Workshop

On Wednesday 20th June, there were two dental workshops.

 We welcomed Ruth and Laura from KING'S COLLEGE HOSPITAL NHS FOUNDATION TRUST to talk to parents about dental hygiene for children.

 Ruth ran a workshop for parents, and Laura gave a presentation to our CALAT group as part of their ‘Small Steps to Health’ course. For this session, children joined their parents, and did some fun activities based around keeping their teeth healthy.

 The workshops were held as an information session and covered topics such as how to brush children’s teeth properly, how much sugar is contained in food when to start taking children to the dentist and advice about good oral hygiene.

 The sessions were very informative and gave rise to good discussions about children’s oral health.
